Join us for a tour of Adam's Grist Mill in Bellows Falls. It was built in 1831 as a grain mill and feed store powered by water drawn from the canal. In 1875 the gristmill passed to the Adams family who owned it until operations ceased in 1961. Much of the mill's machinery is still intact, including both its hydraulic machinery and later electric power systems. We will meet in the parking lot across from the Shedd-Porter Library in Alstead at 12:30pm and carpool over to Bellows Falls for a 1:00 tour.
